Default windows 98se


Hello all,

I have a user that wants to disable games in windows 98.
I'm not sure where to do this...

I thought it was in the regedit

Please advise

Rick

Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > Windows Components > Accessories >
Games > Uncheck the games. This will uninstall them, and you'll need the 98
Disk to install them again - unless you have the i386 folder on the hard
drive, or some pretty clever end users.

HTH.

The only way to do it is delete them, either using Explorer or the
Add/Remove Programs ... Of course, since W98 has no security, anyone can
just re-install them ...

By the way, there's still certification tests available for Windows 98 ???

Windows 98 does have security. If properly configured, you can prevent users
from running certain applications.

It would appear that shortly before posting, I recieved a lobotomy. Combine
that with the fact that I haven't used 98 in over a year, and haven't
installed it in nearly 2, and you've got yourself one humbled jackass.
